Probably - but that analogy doesn't work because they ran in two seperate races with different paces.
Uncle Mo would have obviously been a pace casualty in the BC Classic.
Quality Road did very little running at all - sure, he might have beat Life At Ten, but that's it.
If Blame and Zenyatta had been inserted into the BC Juvie - with that easy pace in relation to the one in the Classic - Uncle Mo is still going to run his same race. Those two closers aren't going to make him slower.
